Definitions

  • This invention relates to a process for continuously preparing cement plates containing a reinforcement consist ing of fibrillated polymeric films.
  • a process for producing cement plates which consists in forming thin mix layers on a porous belt, in rapidly removing the water in excess therefrom and in superposing and winding them up on a roller - which is called forming roller - from which, by means of a horizontal cutting, a plate is obtained, is a technique known since long both in the manufacture of cardboards and in that of the asbestos-cement plates, where it is referred to as Hatscheck process or machine. Wide references to such process are to be found e.g. in "Asbestzement” by Harold Klos, 1967, Springer Verlag, and in “Technical Report No.1 (51.067)" - July 1973, 18-19.
  • the layer layer of asbestos/cement mix is deposited onto the porous strip by means of rotary filters which plunge into tubs or tanks fed by dilute asbestos/cement suspensions.
  • the process forming the object of the present invention utilizes too the known principle of winding up the plate on the forming roll already utilized in the Hatscheck machines, but it is practiced in a series of steps which overcome the abovecited drawbacks of the various processes and in particular the ones cited with reference to British application No. 2,003,422.
  • the process is also employable - by plant adaptations and integrations - in the existing Hatscheck machines for the asbestos-cement plates, which constitute most of the production of the specific field.
  • the process herein described permits to use the conventional and known Hatscheck machines for preparing asbestos-cement plates,and in general all the machines operating by means of porous belts, always for treating the asbestos-cement, which collect the plate on a forming roll, by not substantially modifying the machine and without requiring reductions in productivity and regular stops.
  • This process also permits to work with substrates containing other fibrous materials, since the impregnation of individual nets on thin layers is very effective, provided the above-mentioned process features are observed and provided a ratio higher than 1 or equal to 1 between the thickness of the cement mix elementar layer and the rated thickness of the multilayer net is observed.
  • the products obtained are therefore cement plates, or cement-asbestos plates, or plates of cement with other organic and inorganic fibrous materials, in which the net acts as a reinforcement, imparting to the obtained plate high characteristics of pseudoductility to flexure and high impact strength of the order of 200 times the impact strength of asbestos-cement.
  • Precutting step (b) and step (c) of impregnation with cement mix may also be inverted in the order; as well as steps (e) and (f) of percussion or vibration, and of vacuum, respectively. of fibrillated polymeric film, in an open form, from continuous reels;
  • the cement mix thicknesses on the conveying belt according to step (d) can be usually produced in the Hatschech-type machines if the cement is additioned with a filtering material which permits the cement to deposit onto the filtering rolls, such as for examples various types of asbestos, fibrids and/or polyolefinic fibres, cellulose, paper pulp, organic and inorganic fibres, colloidal clays, etc., according to conventional techniques.
  • a filtering material which permits the cement to deposit onto the filtering rolls, such as for examples various types of asbestos, fibrids and/or polyolefinic fibres, cellulose, paper pulp, organic and inorganic fibres, colloidal clays, etc., according to conventional techniques.
  • such thin cement mix layer can be deposited in other ways, for example by rolling and spraying, according to processes other than the Hatscheck process.
  • the cement mix thickness is less than 3 mm, and more particularly it ranges from 0.1 to 1.5 mm.
  • step (b) cutting of the nets into pieces, according to step (b), can be accomplished conforming to two different modalities :
  • the impregnation of the net or the multiplicity of nets with the cement mix according to step (c) has also the aim of eliminating the air from the net, as well as of introducing in the net products which facilitate the impregnation of the net by the cement mix and the adhesion to each other.
  • Such products can be represented by conventional wetting agents, as well as by known fluidifying agents for the cement, such as "Tween 20” (condensation product of ethylene oxide with fatty acids, produced by Soc. Atlas), or “Melment L” (anionic melamine-formaldehyde resin produced by S.K.W.), and further by salt solutions and precipitating or flocculating agents, which cause the metal salts or hydroxides (such as Ca or Al silicates or hydroxides) to deposit on the net, so as to improve the adhesion of the net to the cement.
  • Teween 20 condensation product of ethylene oxide with fatty acids, produced by Soc. Atlas
  • Meselment L anionic melamine-formaldehyde resin produced by S.K.W.
  • Said impregnation can be carried out by immersion or spraying methods, or by contacting the net with impregnating rollers, or also by pouring the cement mix either over or under the net, as the net comes into contact with the cement layer carried by the porous belt.
  • the cement suspension suited for impregnating the net have generally a water contact between 25% and 500%, but preferably between 40% and 100% by weight on the dry cement weight.
  • the impregnation-treatment (c) can be preceded by a seperate treatment with wetting and/or flocculating agents.
  • Passing of the net through an aqueous solution or suspension of a wetting agent has mainly the purpose of removing the air contained on the net, and secondarily, while operating in the presence of particular substances combined with the surfactant, the purpose of depositing onto the net products capable of influencing both the impregnation process with the hydraulic binder and the successive characteristics of the finished plates.
  • Such products may be, besides the common surfactants and surface- active agents, the above-mentioned cement fluidizing agents, salt solutions and precipitants or flocculating agents or also dilute cement suspensions, which in this case are recycled by the plate-forming machine, which suspensions, beside removing the air from the net, already deposit thereonto cement granules.
  • An operative net deaerating step can be in any case introduced and effected seperately, with different liquid media or other known methods, before or after the abovesaid wetting step, and in any case prior to the adhesion of the net to the cement.
  • Plate compression step (i) generally involves the extraction of the cut plate from the forming roll, the deposition thereof onto a flat mold or onto a mold having any desired profile, and the compression thereof, with pressure values generally ranging from 10 to 70 kg/cm2, and preferably from 20 to 60 kg/cm 2 .
  • Such compression which can be carried out also by means of trains of pressing rolls or by means of pressing plates, aims at flattening the reinforcement-containing plate, which otherwise would tend to slightly bend.
  • the annexed figure schematically shows the various steps of the process carried out by using a Hatscheck-type machine, in which the cement elementary layer is obtained by filtration, such process however being appliable to machines equipped with a forming roll which produces the elementary layer with other means.
  • (1) indicates the porous belt onto which filtering rolls (2), plunging into as many tubs or tanks (17) containing the cement suspension, deposit the elementary cement layer from the suspension fed by (3).
  • (4) indicates the reel of polymeric film fibril lated net, and (5) indicates the devices for grasping , and feeding the net which is periodically cut into pieces in the cutting device (6), through the operative connect-; ion (7) with the forming roll (8), on which pressure (16) acts.
  • (9) indicates an immersion or spraying device from which the net in pieces is soaked, deprived of air and preliminarily impregnated, while (10) indicates a device for accompanying and depositing the net pieces onto the elementary cement layer deposited and conveyed by belt (1).
  • (11) indicates vacuum boxes to reduce the water content and (12) indicates a percussion and vibration device which compacts the net and the cement mix with ench other.
  • (13) indicates the notch on forming roll (8) where the plate cutting and expulsion blade is placed, while (14) indicates the pieces' ends, having a length approximately equal to the circumference of the forming roll and placed at the edges of the notch, in order not to contrast the movement of the detaching blade.
  • the operative connection (7) may consist for example of proximity magnetic switches, placed on the forming roll, which control, through an electric circuit, the film cutting device.
  • the plate detached and expelled from the roll (8) is collected by belt (15), then it is subjected to compression step (i) on devices not shown in the drawing, and is successively sent to the usual rim trimming, corrugation, curing, painting operations, etc.
  • the thus obtained plate is formed by layers of hydraulic binder coming from the filtering boxes, and by layers of hydraulic binder coming from the impregnation step, in par- bicular the ones laid down correspondently with the deposition of the net.
  • the layers coming from the filtering boxes can have a different composition with respect to the layers coming from the impregnation step.
  • the layers coming from the fillering boxes may ontain asbestos and,or cellulose fibres, and/or synthetic polymer fibrids, or other materials suited for aiding the depumtion of cement onto the filtering rollers, whereas the lavers cominc from the impregnation step (or from other outer feeding) which contain the fibrenderd nets may contain cement only, as the fibrered net exerts by itself the function of mechanical reinforcement.
  • the filtered layers which also form the outer layers of the end plate, may contain colouring, matters and/or modifiers for the surface of the plate, whereas the layers coming from the outer feeding may contain lightening agents such as pumice powder.
  • a 2-tank Hatscheck type machine was fed with a mix consisting of 7.5 parts by weight of Italian asbestos (Ba- langero) of degree 4 and 5 respectively in a ratio by weight of 1:1, of 100 parts of Portland cement and of 1100 parts by weight of water.
  • the machine was suited to produce with such mix flat plates, having a thickness of 6.0 mm, of asbestos/cement by 12 revolutions of the forming roll, which has a diameter of 83 cm.
  • the thickness of the cement mix on the conveyor belt was of about 0.5 mm.
  • the machine was fed, by means of the device indicated in figure 1, with a polypropylene fibrillated net, composed of 4 layers, each layer having a thickness of 0.070 mm, and having a specific volume of 32 cm 3 /m 2 .
  • the plate production modalities were the following :
  • the plate was wound up on the roll with a pressure of 35 kg/linear cm for a thickness of 7.2 mm, and contained about 320 cm 3 /cm 2 of fibrillated net with a volume of 4.4% of net referred to the plate volume.
  • the net was wetted by passing through a roll-equipped apparatus with waste water flowing from the filtering rollers and containing traces of suspended fine particles of cement, and it was cut into 250 cm long pieces.
  • the net was impregnated by a cement mix consisting by weight, of 1000 parts Portland cement 1 part Mel - ment, 60 parts water.
  • Said cement mix was applied by a batching plant which sprayed the mix onto the net pieces.
  • the whole amount of the sprayed mix was 5 liter per meter of the plate width and per meter of passage of the porous belt.
  • a Hatscheck-type machine like that of example 1 was fed with a mix composed of 2.5 parts by weight of polyethylene fibrids (Ferlosa produced by Montedison) having a specific surface of 5 m 2 /g, of 100 parts by weight of Portland cement and of 1000 parts by weight of water. ; The fibrids had been previously opened by wet treatment in a blade mill.
  • the machine was fed with polypropylene fibrillated film nets composed of 4 layers having a specific volume of 30 c m 3 / m 2 , the elementary film thickness being of 0.060 mm.
  • the machine so fed was capable of producing a plate having a thickness from 6.5 to 6.7 mm by means of 16 revolutions of the forming roll, which had a diameter of 83 cm and on which a pressure of 30 kg/linear cm was exerted.
  • the thickness of the cement mix elementary layer on the belt was of about 0.4 mm.
  • the net was cut into 250 cm long pieces and the application thereof was effected during 14 revolutions per plate, namely with exception of the two plate ends, the first and the last.
  • the cut plates after extraction from the forming roll, were compressed in a plate press employing a 40 kg/cm 2 pressure.
  • the plates so obtained having a thickness ranging from 6.5 to 6.7 mm, contained on the average 420 cm 3 /m 2 of fibrillated net, corresponding to a volume of 6.4%.
